A garden diary from the eastern tip of the Isle of Wight

In a vase on Monday – Moody loos

So I popped into the garden at lunch time to pick some blooms and it really looked like the end of the world. The light was a deep orangey/black, apparently caused by Saharan sand whipped up by Hurricane Ophelia. Weird!

Gosh, what a rich and sumptuous vase that is, as shown in your first picture especially. I wonder what that salvia might be as it looks such an interesting colour – is it fairly hardy? Great title by the way 🙂
